The kids rotate through different art classes everyday doing things like wearable art, puppetry, acting, working on different art mediums appropriate to their age groups. There is no attached playground so they take them to parks and fields during the day. They play these fun games and do things like escape rooms and mystery detectives that my child recreates at home. My daughter was excited to go everyday and kept asking why the camp was so short by the end. There is a fun exhibition at the end to see all their work. She loved all the teachers especially Ms. Allison which she just adored and was so sad to leave. The camp is affordable and not for profit, highly recommend for kids who love arts and crafts!

In his second year, my son was diagnosed as autistic with adhd and the school was incredibly difficult to work with when we tried to get my son the support he needed. After only two months with the new kindergarten teacher, counselor and principal, we had to switch schools as the kindergarten teacher ended up threatening my son that she would call the police on him and have him taken away because he was having an autistic meltdown. I find out later that other kids were also threatened similarly and also pulled their kids from this school. These children are six years old. There is no excuse to threaten them. My son was afraid of going to school, and he went from a happy, sweet kid who loved school to depressed, anxious, had nightmares, and was terrified the police were going to send him to jail. We needed services asap but staff would stall and gaslight us about the IEP process. They would tell us they knew what they were doing and I just needed to trust them. District denied a 1:1 aide though the school was calling us to pick him up every other day because the teacher was uneducated about teaching neurodivergent children. Very frustrating. There were so many horrible issues and awful teachers and administrators mistreating my son that it traumatized him. He's doing much better in a new different supportive school now but his new teachers and staff had to work so hard to undo the damage that Wild Rose did.

They have a systematic approach to teach children about oil painting. They started with other…read moremedium such as pastel watercolor and charcoal and then move to oil painting once basic skills are acquired. The main goal isn't to spend too much time on other medium, with oil painting being their final goal. The materials they use are all of high quality. You pay for it though. For example they will sell the nice paper one page at a time. Tuition also isn't cheap. I remember having to spend a few hundred on the supplies alone, when my child finally got moved to oil painting. No need to worry being held behind if your child is more advanced. They will just allow your kid to begin to work on the more advanced skills sooner. They do a showcase at the end of each class so you can see what other kids do, how every child interpret the same picture differently, and what you can look forward when move to more advanced level. it's very cool , and of positive reinforcement. Compared to other art classes in the area I'd say this is of much higher quality and better syllabus. They are not regimented compared to those places that were focused on competition or high school portfolio. Overall a very high quality place to learn oil paining but if you are looking to learn other types of art such as water color, then this may not be for you. Another drawback is that it's not so easy with scheduling makeup lesson.. and their policy isn't very flexible. They don't really have a good phone system so need to call leave a message, then wait for call back, or wait at end of class to reschedule in person, and there's often other people waiting too. Also must finish all make up in certain time. We ultimately had to stop going because rescheduling was so difficult and just plain hassle with kids getting older with more schedule conflicts. If they had changed their rescheduling method and allow policy being more flexible, we probably would have stayed. Overall still highly recommended.

Also after paying a registration fee and signing up then they drop a hefty materials fee as well. This place just wants your money. Take your kids to someplace else for art enrichment. Definitely would not take my kids here again. I hate places that nickel and dime you.

The teachers are very patient and I've seen her artwork getting better and better with time.

She even gets requests from her classmates to draw for them.
